It's difficult to do anything about this because allowing the project to open makes a genuine ambiguity over whether the expression refers to the system expression or the variable. I know it's a pain but it's only temporary.

If it's a third-party plugin, it's probably a bug in the plugin... you'll have to ask the author in that case.

nemo, we usually have weekly releases, so it should only be a few days.

There have been a few reports of hotspots going wrong, is this something you can reproduce every time or in a new .capx?

You probably have a variable called 'LayerAngle', which conflicts with the system expression 'LayerAngle' introduced in r75.

Reinstall r74, open your project, rename the variable, save, reinstall r75, and it should work.

Hmm, I think some browsers don't loop audio if you tell it to loop after you started playing, which breaks Construct 2's "loop last audio" pattern. That's annoying, browsers have always been rubbish at playing audio anyway, I'll see if I can fix that by adjusting the Play action to include a loop parameter.

You should always use the 'fullscreen in browser' setting when exporting for a mobile. That hides the link too.

We aren't officially supporting AppMobi for the time being - right now as far as I know it doesn't do anything more than PhoneGap does, unless we change our code. It's on our todo list to see if we can improve this.

See how events work - events fundamentally work by picking individual instances.

In this case you might want to pick it based on an instance variable, or maybe use the system condition 'Pick Nth'.

Can you post a .capx showing the problem?

I'm confused,

I *need* Internet Explorer to run SCIRRA's software?

I purposely gutted IE from this system. I don't want that on here, and if your program relies heavily on it, I probably will not purchase it.

Construct 2 only uses it to show the start page, which is rendered in HTML. It doesn't use it for anything else at all, it's just because IE is the only browser engine that can be assumed to always be installed.

How about this? Set the registry key 'HideStartPage' to the DWORD 1 in:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Scirra\Construct2\Preferences

Then restart Construct 2 and it should skip loading the start page entirely. If the start page is the problem, that should fix it.

Hmm... sounds like this bug that was reported. Not sure what to do about it, since it's working for everyone else and there's no error message...
